Breece Hall News
Sunday, June 14, 6:00 PM
New York Jets running back Breece Hall was one of his team's lone bright spots in 2025, recording 1,415 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns on 279 touches across 16 games. Coming off three consecutive seasons with at least 1,350 scrimmage yards, Hall seemingly secured his place as a building block in the Jets offense by signing a three-year, $43.5 million contract extension in May. However, early reports out of Jets camp indicate that the team may be planning for a "three-headed monster" in their backfield between Hall, Braelon Allen, and Isaiah Davis. Dynasty managers may not want to panic just yet, as Hall's production track record and his contractual status may speak louder than early camp reports. Still, the Jets may be looking for ways to limit Hall's workload and keep him fresh throughout the entire season. It's too early for dynasty managers to be looking to sell high on Hall yet, but the Jets' backfield plans are worth monitoring throughout the remainder of the summer.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt News
Wednesday, June 17, 12:47 PM
Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt (undisclosed), who missed voluntary organized team activities due to an undisclosed soft-tissue injury, returned to practice on Tuesday, according to John Keim of ESPN. While Croskey-Merritt has the clearest path to the RB1 role in Washington in 2026 in his second year in the NFL, head coach Dan Quinn has mentioned that the former seventh-rounder out of the University of Arizona needs to show what he can do in pass protection, among other areas. The 25-year-old could also stand to improve his ball security going into Year 2 as he looks to hold off Rachaad White, Jerome Ford, rookie Kaytron Allen, and Jeremy McNichols. Croskey-Merritt averaged 4.6 yards per carry for a team-high 805 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 175 carries in 2025 in his rookie campaign, but he barely contributed as a pass-catcher with only nine receptions for 68 yards in 17 games (seven starts). Bill's role as the clear lead back in D.C. isn't solidified yet, but he's the best fantasy target in the Commanders' backfield in 2026 as an RB3/flex with upside, primarily in standard-scoring formats.
